The Stroker

Finland / United Kingdom, 2019, 15’, English | no subtitlesNina strolls through Second Home, a trendy London co-working space. She is friendly to everyone, greets and touches people slightly as she passes them. Who is she, and why does this person — soon to be called “the stroker” — always touch people without asking? Based on a two-week intervention in the co-working space, Pilvi Takala poses as founder of the ultra-modern company "Personnel Touch", which supposedly has been commissioned to offer touch as a workplace service, based on studies of the stimulating effect of interpersonal contact.
